TyreSafe "the UKs leading tyre safety organisation" is advising motorists that they can make a significant reduction to their motoring running costs by keeping their tyres correctly inflated. According to research conducted by a major tyre manufacturer and member of TyreSafe, driving on tyres which are just ten psi under the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended pressure can increase fuel consumption by 2.5 percent. By keeping tyres at their correct pressure, motorists can travel further on each tank of petrol and help reduce CO2 emissions. Most Hypermilers should already know this but tyre safe are doing a great job keeping our roads safer, our CO2 emmisions lower and our fuel consumption up through public awareness.
